5.0 out of 5 starsKeat's Peter is such a sweet kid, dealing with typical sibling jealousy

ByLiteratedon February 9, 2018

This book is a classic. Keat's Peter is such a sweet kid, dealing with typical sibling jealousy. His "running away" is hilarious, as is his "hiding" in the house. Both are very gentle and realistic. His parents roll with the flow and stay in the background of the book, letting Peter come to his own realizations about the new baby.

My grandson loved The Snowy Day so much, I had to get him Peter’s Chair as well. The main character,Peter has a baby sister and is not sure about her getting all his outgrown things. It’s a very comforting story for a young child with a new sibling.

This story explores Peter's feelings about his new sister. Ezra Jack Keats stories are always engaging for children with just the right amount of emphasis on the emotional theme. Kids want to read it again and again because it speaks subtly to their hearts.
